Heaviest Trult Trade to Portland.
During the past few days the fruit
trade of the Portlnnd market was the
heaviest In the history of the city. All
dealers aicree to thin. The volume of
business is fully twice uu heavy as a
year ano, and tor several uuj 1 "";
street merchants have been compelled
to work overtime in filling their city
and country orders. This Is the flush
of the fruit season, and never before
has been shown any approach to the
f treat volume or traoe now ruimt;
oads of watermelons, sometimes three
or four a dav. are coming, and arc fnd
lns; a sale at quite good prices. z0T

where thev were goinR to dispose or

Is first-class finds ft demand.
Famous Cherrle Have Appeared.
If you have not seen some of those
: ' magnificent cherries belli sent to this
cltv from the Webb farm at Troutdule,
then you have not seen the wonder of
the world, for this cherry has that dis
tinction. It Is fully as large as a good
elzed cherry plum, and is of the Liim
bert varletv. The Webb farm contains
about 10 acres of Lambert cherries, and
its product is known from one end of
the United States to the other as the
best that grows, Miss Clara Webb Is
the manager of the farm.
Canned Milk to Advance.
On and after July 31 from present
announcement, at least the price of
Carnation canned milk will be ad
vanced to J4.05 a case, which is Just
40c case above the present price. It
Is likewise the exact size of the cut
made by the Carnation people when
the Borden company tried to secure a
foothold here. There has been no an
nouncement as yet as to the course
that Borden will pursue regarding the
future price. It is understood, how
ever, that the Carnation people ad
vanced their price from necessity, be
cause cheese-makers and creamery men
were- starting to pav higher figures,
and there has not. as a result, been as
much canned milk produced us the
trade justilleti.
Lemons Advanced 23 Cents Case
An advance of 25c a case is noted
In the nrlce of lemons both here am
in the south. This Is because of the
very hot weather rullnur throughout the
country, causing a record-breaking de
mand for the sour fruit. Fancy lem
ons are today selling along the street as
high as J a case.
Crawford peaches are showing an ad
vance in California owing to the greater
demand.
Brief notes of Trade.
A steadier tone and consequently
higher values rule in tlie Front street
market for lbgan berries, with some of
the best fruit selling today as high as
II a crate.
Tomatoes are generally lower, with
sales toaay irom i0o to i.2,- a oox.
. CrabaDOies are arriving In market
end are finding a nominal demand at
II a box.
Dressed meats remain quite steady
for tirst-class stock.
According to advices received from
lower Columbia this morning, the
muddy water has cut down the fish
catch to a considerable extent.
Worth la Buying Cheese.
There Is a mu'li firmer tone in the
cheese market today, and prices are
being held stiff at 14tfrl4Hc for flats,
triplets and daisies. It Is quite likely,
however, that the price will he stiff at
14 Vie the first of the coming week.
There is again a very liberal demand
from the north, and local supplies are
light.
Eee market is steadv at unchanged
values.
Demand for poultry Is so good that
the liberal arrivals are cleaned up
quite quickly at recently advanced val

Pendleton. Or.. Julv 22. For the first
time in many years? reoorts of arrass-
hoppers injuring crops are reaching the
city from the country around Pilot
Rock section, south from here. In many
Instances farmers have lost the entire
crop of the second cutting of alfalfa
hay, and many gardens have been en
tirely ruined by these pests. They
seem to be in spots and so far have
only been noticed In the country a few
miles of pilot Rock. It is said that
the. dry season has something to do
with their being so thick there. The
loss to the different farmers about
there will probably amount to over

100 years, died here yesterday. His
death has removed an historic char
acter from the Quiniault Indian tribe.
Sotomlsh was a souroe of much an
noyance to the government during the , -early
days. He and his braves harassed
the federal troops for soma months,
until he was finally captured while at
tempting to stampede the officers
horses, was hung up by the thumbs
and reformed, and was appointed to a
position on the Indian police force.
Since that time his allegiance and
friendliness to the whites has never
been questioned.
